Compound heterozygous GFM2 mutations with Leigh syndrome complicated by arthrogryposis multiplex congenita.

abstract：:Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a common autosomal recessive disorder mainly caused by defects in the steroid 21-hydroxylase (CYP21) gene. More than 90% of CAH cases are caused by mutations of the CYP21 gene. Approximately 75% of the defective CYP21 genes are generated through intergenic recombination, termed ...
